Sorry, I want some tenuous connection to VR/AR as well.

How much money do you make per hour?

We've been hearing about it since forever.

I guess it depends on whether people believe cryptocurrencies have a future, and if they're confident Ethereum will still exist 10 years from now. I don't care if the price falls temporarily, it has the potential to make a major impact on the world and I think engineers will be able to surmount the challenges it faces today. It's as simple as that for me.

They have the moral high ground because a large proportion of their population isn't protesting against the monarchy or Queen.

Nobody(except you) deems it concerning that the TV is 'hijacked' once a year, and your concerns can be dismissed because they are motivated out of defending Turkish actions.

Hmm. If Darwinian evolution is based on factors currently present around the species, wouldn't it basically be optimizing for short-term factors? So you could call Darwinian evolution a greedy algorithm, that optimizes for a local maxima. What about the global maxima, how can life evolve to that state?

I'd probably go for 4 if() checks, some 'less than'/'greater than'/'&&' checks should do it.

Yes, I get where you are coming from. I know my comment is somewhat irrational. That is why I examined my own sentiment - why do I want this news to stop? Because it feels like a rehearsed newsreel, a daily television drama. I'm afraid that scrolling HN might soon become like scrolling facebook. Maybe its just personal over-saturation for me, sorry in that case.

P.S. 5 now.

I count 4 Uber stories on the front page today. There have been a few every week since the past few months. Will this sordid saga ever end? I feel this is like watching a newsreel about the same topics every few days.

SolarCoin is one such effort.

Makes me wonder if this comment will age well, after around 50-100 years.

This particularly worries me because if technical skills go out of vogue, then people skills would become conversely more important, and the thing I've optimized for all my life would become useless.

Can we get his children interested in programming or something?

Can we expect a similar POC for this P2P-based New Internet that you have scoped up? Basically, how feasible are the concepts explained by Richard?
